    Can go wider if we have to but happy enough as it is.
    There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore and who always will. Don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it in your future.

      Most 'No' posters have given their reasons, all these who have voted yes, why?

          Some of us Ben are working with archaic machines and weak broadband strengths! Would I notice a change?

              No, I like it as it is. It's easy to read and I only have a small monitor. Although there is a green gap down each side and so I suppose I could cope with it a little bigger, I think it actually looks quite attractive

                It is easy to read on my machine. I think if you have to move your eyes further to get to the end of rows it would make them ache (poor old things!). I'm all for exercise but I don't want headaches.

                    For me, I'd prefer it to stay the same - I know it means larger images - good, but also longer lines of text - bad! The way it is seems more like reading the width of a magazine page, and that's fine by me! I think certain other forums look more 'technical' with their very wide format, and nowhere near as friendly (cosy?) as this one. We've already had extra 'buttons' added, and those 'orrible adverts....

                      Ben, is the package you use capable of putting up a dynamically re-sizing format which adjusts textwrap to window size?

                            With some of the bigger monitors that people use these days I can imagine it becoming like watching a tennis match with the head having to sway from side to side to read the text!

                              Still no input from the 'yes' make it bigger voters?

                              Ben, it seems that 'bigger pictures' is being bandied about as a positive. Perhaps you could answer this, is it to do with bigger banner ads or more advertising 'fitting' on the forum?

                                Oops - sorry Manda! Yes - I was a 'yes' but have now changed my mind after reading other comments, and there doesn't seem to be a 'dithery girl - oh no she's a Libra' button.

                                For what it's worth, tho', my initial reasoning was based on how many pages you get printed out if you just want - say - a recipe, or to print out a pm for an address or something. Seemed wasteful - but those who say about the 'comfort factor' whilst reading are right, I think.

                                D'oh!
